Another one....

So the maid decides to go to school. COntinue her education... and 'Boy' am I up for that. It means we can at least add value to the life of an individual. That is fantastic. It also means that she can be totally independent and be able to provide bread for her family when she wishes. Nonody wants to be left behind. Education is a legacy.
We were all excited about this, even the maid herself was super excited. I had started to search for adult education centres within the area, so she can go and start the next stage of her life. Little did I know, that my friends mother would object. What was her response ' When I do not have a maid to help around, you want to send her to school?'
I have never heard any such negative comment, and the connotation......... O my WORD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What she meant was.. if you think she has time on her hands to get education, perhaps you should send her over to help me with some of my house chores.

I can't think, I do not know what to do...

It is unbelievable.. in this day and age....O my Josephine!!!!!

Hmmmmmm.. This life eh!!!

Another day dawns....and thus it goes.. my sister has still not been paid her last months wages. Why?... Some 'Man' who thinks he is an all in all has not signed of on her pay-check. Why do these things happen. So now.. she has worked 6 weeks without pay. She lives in a city about 12 hours away - by road. SO she cannot come home for dinner everyday. It is appalling.
Previous to that, she was supposed to go to Uni but her papers did not arrive on time. The said documents arrived one week after the late enrolment date, forcing her to take a year out before pursuing the degree. Why?.. I keep asking why?... perhaps someone has an answer that I cannot see.
Like I said.. this life eh!!!
Have to send her some money to cover living expenses or something....
Just when you think that life is going on well. then a spanner goes into the works.

This life... eh!!!!

Finally

Alleluia!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Good Lord!!! It has taken me this long to get here. My goodness, the ideas, thoughts and processing running through my brain have almost left me crazy. O my Word!!! you should see them chasing up and down, round and round my head. Even affecting my facial gestures. It is appalling. Now.. I get to express it somewhere, where I can read it.
I mean, its not like I have not tried to write them down before, its just that, when I do the thoughts are pouring like a dozen to one at the same time, and I am busy trying to write as fast as i can to catch up. Then my handwriting becomes illegible, and I cant read it no more.
Ain't that a sad, sad story.
Whooohoooo!!!.. I am good baby...

Yeah.... ready to speed off. But first, I gotta get back to work. I am sure I shall be back.. , and back I will be.
Ciao
